Happy St. Patrick's Day!
March, 17th is, of course, Saint Patrick's Day! Do you celebrate, or at least, observe St. Patrick's Day? If so, how do you? Do you wear green , eat a meal of corned beef and cabbage, enjoy a parade or two? Let us know some of your Saint Patrick's Day traditions or an interesting story from Saint Patrick's Days past.
I'll start!
When I was a kid at home, me and my brothers loved reading Dr. Seuss stories, so our parents started a tradition of cooking up Green Eggs and Ham every Saint Patrick's Day. It was the best to wake up to some freshly fried Green Eggs and Ham before school on St. Patrick's Day and then forgetting to wear green to endure pinches all day from my classmates.

I'm English, so I've never observed this holiday. :) But I'm fine with a green pint.
AWWWW! That is the cutest tradition, Jay! In grade school (and I guess a couple times in college) I did try to remember to wear green. Now, not so much.
Hahaha green beer, I don't think I've ever had that on St. Patrick's. I should put that on my to do list.
OH! I just remembered, I happened to be in Chicago on the weekend of St. Paddy's Day celebrations, and I got to see them dye the Chicago River green! It was pretty cool. It was also FREEZING that day. Yet... I still accepted a free green Slurpee someone was handing out in front of a 7-Eleven...

I ate a pickle earlier. That's about the extent of my green-ness today. :p
